i just had contact with support regarding super slow rendering times – they referred me here.
i convert an h264 to a cropped png sequence, no effects applied (except the cropping).
if i do this in premiere or ae, it takes at least 2 hours and only utilises a fraction of my cpu. if i do the very same operation via ffmpeg (cli), it's done in less then 7 minutes. attached you'll find screenshots of the two procedures, note the render times (as said, same task, same machine, same result).

is this expected behaviour (because cc simply does not work on more then one core/thread) or a bug (and something can be done about it)?

Trying to use Premiere pro 2018 (having cpu issues with 2019 and 20 due to older computer) but gradient wipe does not work!! I don't understand why if Adobe supports 2018, and it's available to download they can't give me the updated versions of 2018 in which this problem was fixed? CRM:08022000001557

Playback is choppy when you view the video. I edited a video two days ago and now when I play it back in the editor it is very choppy. So I started another and I get the same. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it and the same. IT's CHOPPY. Please FIX>

On older versions of Premiere pro I was and am able to import any size or quality of video or audio where in the newest three versions I can't import specific videos or audio and I don't whether this is a bug or the app itself

Premiere Pro CC 2019 wont read video clips like 2018 version. What has changed with the system and is there a future update to smooth the the thins up Same video clips run on Da Vinci Resolve smoothly but not the CC 2019.

Adobe i s getting suoer annoying it said ti update drivers which i did then its just crashes with in 30 secs of being open i cant even use it at all. wasting my money time and resources when i can sitch right to final cut pro!! ARGGGGGH FIX IT

SO sick of Premiere crashing. It is seemingly random so I cannot give any specific reasons.
Sometimes I haven't touched anything and the whole thing just closes (doesn't freeze, just disappears as if the program isn't open).
Sometimes it freezes while just hitting the space bar, sometimes when I save it crashes ie. it doesn't save and I lose everything!

As of the last update it hasn't been saving properly either (I have autosave set to 10mins but also manually do it constantly) so I have lost hours of work and a whole head of hair. It's doing my head in.

I'm on version 12.1.0 (build 186) and using macOS High Sierra 10.13.3 on one of the top spec/latest iMacs.

DUDE.. i just lost HOURS of work because YOUR PROGRAM randomly dropped my preview screen and then I CAN'T FIND ANY BASIC OPTION to bring it back, clicked on Reference Monitor thinking that might help and it crashed.. I LOST HOURS OF MY EFFORT. I had save automatically on and everything. Right now I wish I could drive my fist through some of you programmers faces.

Hey for some odd reason since before Christmas I can't render in to out and even when I try to export.. it does nothing. When I click render in to out nothing pops up not even the ETA box or telling how many files left to render. Also having the absolute hardest time opening dynamic links between AE and PR. I thought it was an update was going to drop very soon again, but that doesn't seem to be the case. My entire Adobe clouds is updated and I'm running a MacBook Mojave 10.14.2. Please tell me if you've had any issues similar, fixes, adobe please contact, my entire workflow has halted since before Christmas for multiple projects! Thank You!

Premiere will not play audio or video. When the play button is clicked, it changes to the stop button, but does not play video or audio. I exported a video, and it exported fine, and I was able to edit the exact same video on another computer. I tried signing out and signing back in as well as uninstalling and reinstalling premiere and restarting my computer, with no success. Considering how much I'm spending for this software, I am very annoyed that it doesn't work at all.

premiere is not responding. Will load projects, but seemingly overnight the workflow went from fantastic to unworkably slow

Have taken computer to Apple support for hardware and software wellness check and there is no issue with the machine.

steps to resolve: ( we have tried so far)
-Uninstalled, reinstalled program.
-Updated to most recent version
- check connection to media of Raid speed (very good - works great in other Adobe programs, AE, PS)
-Used Adobe Cleaner to Uninstall Creative Cloud and wipeout any lingering Adobe drivers, installers etc. THEN reinstalled premiere .
-reset computer to factory settings and deleted OS then reinstalled OS and reinstalled CC suite

All yields same result.
